OCTOBER CURRENTLY + SEPTEMBER BLOG REVIEW

*affiliate links used*

One of my favorite posts of the month is here! First I’m linking up with Anne and talking about what we are wearing, collecting, making, taking, and planning for October. Then, I’m recapping YOUR favorite posts, links, and purchases from September! I’m so glad you are here!!

I’m going to bore some of you to tears with all the “what I’m wearing” pictures a little further on in this post but I will say that these “lounge” (aka PJ) pants and Nathan’s t-shirts have been getting A LOT of action any time I’m at home!

Other people’s Tupperware and unfinished thank you notes…insert monkey covering his eyes emoji here. We had so many kind friends provide us with meals and other generous gifts over the past few weeks…I should really stop writing this and go finish those darn notes!

As soon as I get to a regular grocery store (aka not Aldi) for some spice cake mix I’ll be making the easiest, most delicious pumpkin bread ever. It will forever be one of my favorite fall things!

Pictures for a day in the life post! I documented our super random day on Monday and hope to have the post up tomorrow. Which is sort of wishful thinking, but I’m going to try.

For maternity leave, whaaat? As of today there are only nine more weeks until this baby is due and she is coming during my busiest time of the year at work! I started to make a list and timeline this week and whoa. It’s going to be a crazy next 9 weeks.

September’s Top Blog Posts

1. Friday Five – Friday Five posts are always popular but this one was MAJORLY popular last month. It probably has to do with the fact that I talked a little bit about how we lost my brother a few weeks ago, but I can’t be sure. Miss that boy more every day…

2. 10 More Books to Read if You Liked Girl on The Train – I’ve been on a huge suspense novel kick lately and reviewed 10 of my favorites in this post! Make sure you check it out and leave me your recommendations.

3. Navarre Beach Trip (Part One) (Part Two) – We took a fun beach trip in early September and explored a new-to-us-area, Navarre Beach. Even though they can be a bear to write I love having trip posts to look back on!

September’s Top Purchased Items

(I go more into into affiliate links and how they work in the middle of this post if you are interested in how I capture this data.)

1. Universal Thread Mid-Rise Jegging – LISTEN UP! These jeans that I rave about 24/7 because they are super flattering, super comfortable, and CRAZY affordable are on MAJOR sale right now. Like, almost half off. $15 for these jeans is the best deal ever and you NEED them! Fit true to size.

2. Anorak Jacket – This anorak jacket was a total staple in my closet this spring and I’m confident it will be this fall as well! It adds interest to even the most basic t-shirt and jean outfit. I’m so glad a few of you scooped it up! It does fit a little over-sized, so keep that in mind. I’m in a medium (my normal size) and would be fine in a small.

3. Plush-Knit Open-Front Sweater – THIS. SWEATER. It was chilly for about three days last week and I wore it every. day. It’s so soft and cozy. I sized up to a large for an over-sized fit.

4. Maternity Racerback Run Tank – My favorite top to work out in! Not too tight on the bump, but is still very flattering due to the cut. Highly recommend! Fits true to size.

September’s Top Clicked Items

1. Maternity V-Neck T-Shirt – My favorite every day t-shirt again this pregnancy! Good quality, soft fabric, and a ton of different colors and patterns. They are on sale right now for $22 for two which is a great price!

2. Blush Sueded Flats – I love that blush is an acceptable color year round right now! These flats are so pretty and go with everything.

3. Buffalo Check Swing Blouse – This Old Navy top is non-maternity but I sized up and I think it’s still super cute over the bump! The perfect top for fall, am I right?

4. Pointy Toe Loafers – I’m so glad these Target loafers are back for fall! I think I’m going to scoop up the tan ones right now while they are still in stock! There are also grey and leopard (currently sold out but I’m keeping my eye out) and blush options on top of black and tan. And ohh I just saw that they have a rose gold pair!! Swoon. I’ve worn these all day several times and they are super comfortable. Highly recommend. I got my normal size.

5. Almond Toffee Kcups – I LOVE that you all are as passionate about fall flavored coffee as I am! These almond toffee kcups are SUCH a dream. The smell alone while they are brewing is worth it. They will certainly do the trick until they put this flavor out!
